Film Noir

Film Noir (Keith Keppel, 2021) is a remarkable tall bearded iris that commands attention with its bold, high-contrast palette and graphic patterning. Standing at 37" (94 cm) and blooming midseason to late, this cultivar features eggplant standards with subtle cream speckling, dramatic dark red-brown style arms, and chrome yellow wings edged in delicate yellow lace. The falls showcase a luminous aureolin yellow ground, accented by a wide, slightly red edge, midline, and intricate raying and dotting. Mustard brown beards finish in brown over white, adding further depth. With its painterly coloration and commanding garden presence, Film Noir is a collector-grade, exhibition-worthy iris that brings a dynamic, showpiece quality to any landscape. Honored with an AIS Honorable Mention in 2024. No noted rebloom or fragrance. Available at Amethyst Creek Farm. Attributes: Edge Trim Awards: Honorable Mention
